Glaxosmithkline tells court there is no link between swine flu vaccine and narcolepsy

Pharmaceutical company Glaxosmithkline, which supplied the Pandemrix vaccine during the threatened swine flu pandemic, has told the High Court no causal link has been established between the vaccine and the sleep disorder narcolepsy.

GLacosmithkiline (GSK) was making a submission in the case of 26-year-old Aoife Bennett who is suing claiming she developed narcolepsy after she got the swine flu Pandemrix vaccination.
